Anthology comics of a spicy nature. Smut Peddler's newest releases are always the highlight of the season, giving artists a chance to explore their style and a vast array of kinks. This volume, focusing on human/monster pairings, is sure to be a hit with the current monsterfucker trend.

My favorite of the collection, for hotness, is definitely "Lonesome Palace" by Leia Weathington and B. Sabo. The monster here is the second-most otherly in the book (right behind the also fantastic "Nebula"), and there's also the added titillations of transformation and taking on instinct. It's also colored just beautifully.

But you can't skip "Spoilsport," by Gail Simone and Oglaf artist Trudy Cooper. No, that one isn't really on the "erotic" scale as much, but it's got that good Oglaf humor.

This is a theme I hope Iron Circus repeats, someday. Monster Girlfriend, please?

3.5 stars.

Every year I look forward to Smut Peddler's Kickstarter offerings, and while I didn't like this as much as other ones, it was still entertaining. This graphic novel is all about monster sex. The type of monster varies nicely, though they do all seem to boast super large genitalia. I liked the artwork in most of the stories. The idea and premise behind them is good as well. My biggest complaint is the brief nature of the tales. Some of them are pretty much just the sex scene, with very little preamble and/or after story. It left me a little wanting, but overall, it's a good selection.

It is a very pansexual anthology with some unconventional love/list stories. My fav is Spoilsport, but that's more for the comedy than anything else. Very good read.

Ha. Bought it for the m/m stories mostly and damn, hot stuff but also heartwarming as well. I liked all of the arts, some less some more of course. My favorite stories where with the bird and the one in the cabin :)

I wasn't sure what I was getting into with this.

It's definitely a racy read with explicit sex scenes. It also has some real moments of tenderness and a hilarious story that Gail Simone helped write. The art is vivid and I was pleasantly surprised by the diversity of bodies included.

One gripe is that it is currently out-of-print and available only as a digital title and I very much prefer graphic novels in physical form.

Exceptional anthology. Spike's curation is always top-notch. Loved most of the stories, adored all of the art.
